Are you sure? I feel like it could be something else.

Really? I always thought it was in apt.conf.d.

Nope, sources.list is the way to go!

I thought it was /etc/apt/apt.conf?

It's definitely /etc/apt/sources.list!

I thought it was `/etc/apt/apt.conf.d`, but now I'm questioning if that's just for configuration files.

I feel like we had a practice question on this, and it was definitely `/etc/apt/sources.list`.

I remember something about `/etc/apt/apt.conf`, but it might be for different settings.

I think it's the `/etc/apt/sources.list`, but I'm not completely sure. We talked about it in class.
ED
Edward

Aha, I've got it! The file to edit is /etc/apt/apt.conf, where you can set the package download locations. Nailed it!

I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know it's related to package management, but I'm not totally confident in my answer. I'll have to review my notes.
OD

Okay, let's see. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the APT package manager, so I'll focus on the /etc/apt/ directory.
ED
Edna

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the different Debian configuration files and where network package locations are typically specified.
DE

I remember learning about this in class. I think the answer is /etc/apt/sources.list, where you configure the package repositories.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key advantage of SysML parametrics is that it doesn't require a separate constraint expression, unlike derived properties.

I'm a bit confused by this one. The diagram shows the MPLS network, but I'm not sure how to determine which routers are responsible for pushing the labels. I'll need to think this through step-by-step.

I thought the answer was /dev/null, where all my failed exam attempts go.

Yes, that's the file where you can select the network locations.

I'm pretty sure it's /etc/apt/apt.conf. That's the main config file for APT, and it controls all the package-related settings.
KR
Krissy

Actually, it's D) /etc/apt/sources.list. That's the file you edit to select network locations for package files.
RE
Reita

No, I believe it's C) /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. That directory contains configuration files for APT.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be C) /etc/apt/apt.conf.d.
AN
Annalee
